!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Fake! You don't get the shotgun until two levels later!

I know you're joking but thanks to the Internet, I can confirm you do get the shotgun in the lost valley stage where dinosaurs are found. Now that I read up on it, the funniest part to me is that this meme might have actually chose a shotgun for that reason, especially since apparently you can totally take on a T-Rex with a shotgun.

The meme chose the shotgun because that's what is used in the original, from Hot Fuzz

Happy coincidences.

Also, this is how I find out my IP is also banned by know your meme.

Why wouldn't you be able to take on a T-Rex with a shotgun? It's not like it has metal armor or lacks vital organs.

You can take it on with the basic pistols if you like. Plenty of spots to stand and shoot from safely.
